Knowing God - Our Father Gives Grace and Peace



Philem 3
Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father ......

God is our Father, if we have received Christ and become children of God.  We are told over and over again that our Father gives peace.  It is from having Him as our Father that we have the peace we need.  Take a moment and read how many times our God wrote this to understand the fact that He really wants us to know this:

1 Tim 1:2  Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father
2 Thess 1:2… Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father…
1 Thess 1:1Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father,…
Col 1:2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father…
Phil 1:2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father…
Eph 1:2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father,…
2 Cor 1:2 Grace be to you and peace from God our Father,…
1 Cor 1:3 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father,…
Rom 1:7Grace to you and peace from God our Father…

It is from the favor, or grace, we have with God as our Father that we have the peace and lack of restlessness we might tend to move towards.  Enjoy God as your Father today knowing that, the favor and peace we so need comes from Him!
